 Consultation did not go as I expected. The revision for a lap band is not covered by my Insurance, so he wants me to go for a upper Gi on friday to see if my pouch has grown back to my stomach and opened up if that is the case he can do a revision RNY, if that isnt the case then there is nothing he can do for me...

Good luck to you and don't get discouraged.  What about a revision to DS?

 Thank you. A DS Doctor is a few states away I can not travel for surgery at this time.

Take a look at my Doctor...he does the DS revisions.  MA to PA might be doable at some point.  I would be happy to help!

To be honest it is extremely unlikely that a band over your bypass would do much for you anyway.

The band got me to goal, the sleeve will keep me there.
